"Mom, I thought about it and decided to go to my uncle's house!"

After knowing what kind of life this old uncle had from the memory of her predecessor, Song Juan became interested and wanted to see what kind of person her old uncle was.

"Aren't you going?"

Li Guilan was a little confused.

Song Juan chuckled: "Didn't I just figure it out?"

"It's Sima Zhao's intention that those people come to visit our house, and everyone on the street knows it."

"But there is no reason for them to go to my uncle's house!"

"After all, mom and dad still have to make the decision on this kind of thing, right?"

"I just need to hide out, wherever I want!"

Li Guilan thought about her daughter's explanation and it seemed to be right.

"Okay, I'll take you to your uncle's house tomorrow. Just in time, don't you like to eat persimmons? There aren't many other things in your uncle's village, and the persimmon trees are much older!"

After listening to Song Juan's words, Li Guilan directly set the time.

…

The next day, it was nice weather.

There were large white clouds floating in the sky, but it was not cloudy.

When the breeze blows, it feels cool.

Li Guilan and Song Juan started from Banpo Village and took a mountain path. They had to climb two mountains before they arrived at Li Guilan's natal home, the village where Uncle Song Juan lived.

The village is called Lijia'ao, and it is a real small mountain village.

Although they don't have any high mountains here, they are all hills and hills, but the place where Lijia'ao is located is exactly in the middle of those taller mountains.

In the early years, wolves could still be seen at Lijiaao.

But in recent years, it has been basically invisible.

However, according to Li Guilan, there are still wolves in Lijia'ao. When villagers wake up in the morning, they often see white wolf droppings in the fields outside the village.

Because of the presence of wolves, the village of Lijia'ao is surrounded by walls.

There are special entrances and exits for entering and exiting the village.

It's like an ancient city with a wall outside.

Even at night, the village will arrange people to stay on duty.

Due to the conditions in Lijia'ao, almost all the villages in Qiaojia Town have educated youths living there, but not in Lijia'ao.

There wasn't much farmland in Lijia'ao, and the villagers themselves didn't have enough to eat, so the educated youth couldn't afford it.

"Mom, since my uncle and his village don't have enough land, why don't they move out?"

"Don't ask me about this, I don't know!"

Li Guilan spread her hands, "I also asked your grandpa at the beginning, and your grandpa said that this is not something I should worry about!"

"Grandpa favors boys over girls?"

Song Juan has never met her grandfather and grandmother. After all, her predecessors were the old ladies of Li Guilan and Song Laifu.

"That's not true!"

"It's just that your grandpa said that some things are your uncle's responsibility!"

"Mom, after my uncle married so many aunts and gave birth to so many cousins, wouldn't the land in Lijia'ao become even more insufficient?"

"The people in his village don't blame him?"

Song Juan felt more and more that her old uncle was a little strange.

The land in Lijia'ao is limited, which means that the population that Lijia'ao can support is limited. However, her old uncle has managed to do something that others cannot do, which is very strange.

"Don't tell me, I really haven't thought about this problem!"

Li Guilan blinked and looked at Song Juan for a while, "I don't know what the situation was like before. Anyway, when I go back to my parents' home every year, the attitude of the people in the village is very good."

"Perhaps your uncle has a way to solve the problem!"

"By the way, when you get to your uncle's house, don't run around, okay?"

"Your uncle is not as conciliatory to you as we are to you!"

"I know, I know!"

Song Juan nodded fiercely.

From the memory of her predecessor, she could see that her old uncle actually didn't like her niece very much. Every time he treated her, he looked at her nose instead of her nose and her eyes instead of her eyes.

As for the reason?

Song Juan was not found.

It seems that the predecessor and the other person's horoscope are not in common.

"That's sloppy!"

Song Juan just saw this memory and felt that she had dug a hole for herself by taking refuge in her uncle's house this time.

However, this is already halfway done, and even if she regrets it, she can't do it anymore.

"Forget it, let's give it a try!"

Song Juan thought for a while and finally decided to stick to it.

This is the path you chose, and you have to walk it on your knees.

"Mom, how many days should I stay at my uncle's house?"

Although she decided to give it a try, Song Juan felt that she still had to go home as early as possible. After all, a golden nest and a silver nest were not as good as her own doghouse, not to mention that her uncle's place was not a golden nest and a silver nest.

"Let's stay for three to five days!"

Li Guilan thought for a while and gave a number, "In this way, when not many people from our family come to visit, I will come to take you back!"

"All right!"

Song Juan sighed.

After an hour and a half of trekking, the two finally arrived at Lijia'ao.

Standing halfway up the mountain, Song Juan saw the village in front of her that looked like a cottage style.

Outside the rows of houses, there is a wall more than three meters high.

"Mom, Lijia'ao must have been a bandit village before, right?"

"of course not!"

Li Guilan rolled her eyes at Song Juan, "When have you ever seen a bandit's house built at the foot of a mountain?"

"that's true!"

Song Juan raised her hand and scratched her head.

Generally, bandit strongholds are built in places that are easy to defend and difficult to attack.

But although this Lijiazhai has a wall, in today's age of firearms, this kind of wall is simply vulnerable.

So, I think too much.

The wall built in Lijia'ao was purely to keep out the wild beasts in the mountains.

When Li Guilan and Song Juan walked to the gate of the wall to the north, villagers from Lijia'ao immediately came to greet them.

"Auntie, you are here, my father is waiting for you at home!"

The person who came up saw the person coming clearly and immediately trotted forward.

Well, this is one of Song Juan's cousins.

As for his name, Song Juan couldn't find it from the memory of her predecessor.

Because there were so many cousins, I didn't even remember their names, but I did a pretty good job of memorizing their rankings.

"Cousin Ninth!"

"Juan'er is here too!"

Hearing what this ninth cousin said, Song Juan smiled awkwardly. For someone as big as herself, how could she listen to his words as if she had just seen herself?

"It's to keep the job. Is it your turn to keep the door today?"

Li Guilan immediately called out the other party's name.

"Yes, aunt!"

"Okay, you can continue to guard!"

Li Guilan didn't say much to her nephew and took Song Juan directly to Lijia'ao Village.

Song Juan said "goodbye" to her ninth cousin before entering the village with Li Guilan.

Recalling the process of meeting this ninth cousin, Song Juan discovered another strange place.

That is, what the ninth cousin said when he saw them was clearly saying that her old uncle knew that they were coming to Lijia'ao today.

"Am I overthinking it?"
